<a name="index-output-section-attributes"></a>
<p>We showed above that the full description of an output section looked
like this:
</p>
<div class="smallexample">
<pre class="smallexample"><var>section</var> [<var>address</var>] [(<var>type</var>)] :
  [AT(<var>lma</var>)]
  [ALIGN(<var>section_align</var>)]
  [SUBALIGN(<var>subsection_align</var>)]
  [<var>constraint</var>]
  {
    <var>output-section-command</var>
    <var>output-section-command</var>
    &hellip;
  } [&gt;<var>region</var>] [AT&gt;<var>lma_region</var>] [:<var>phdr</var> :<var>phdr</var> &hellip;] [=<var>fillexp</var>]
</pre></div>

<p>We&rsquo;ve already described <var>section</var>, <var>address</var>, and
<var>output-section-command</var>.  In this section we will describe the
remaining section attributes.
